What was your quickest KO?


3.50

When I was younger I was a 5th degree Emperor in Shotokan Karate. Quickest KO was 7 seconds by a reverse palm punch to the forehead. 


Dann bro, I sure wouldnt have fricked with you either.

Im sure you just don't want to brag, but being a Bama fan I have no doubt that you quickly rose from Emporer to Grand Wizard, amirite?
No need to be humble about such an achievment

I was 6’3 215 with a 4.6 forty and a 455 bench and 550 pound squat. Also had a 20” neck.


I wasnt a powerhouse like that, but I've been known to take out bigger abd stronger dudes than myself, like yourself, by tiring them out.

Dont mean that to sound like a brag about my speed. I only have a modest 4.3 forty speed, so I'm not #AuburnFast or anything, but I am very agile and your old lady will vouch that I have the stamina of a jaguar ;)

Boxing just wasn’t challenging enough for me it got boring knocking people out all the time. Had to move on to something else that could keep me interested. Plus, I wanted to learn a discipline that would allow me to successfully take on 4 or 5 opponents at one time in case I found myself in such a situation. Messed around with bodybuilding a little bit as well but it was making me too robotic and I was losing my flexibility which was essential to my Karate. This was in the 1970’s back then you really didn’t have to worry about someone pulling a gun on you unlike today. I am paying the price for it now though my body is a mess. Simple things like typing out this post can bring debilitating pain. I don’t have three knuckles on my left hand (I am a Southpaw) from brutally KOing too many people in hard sparring.
